9st 13lb |
Gained a second career success at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in January; has come back from a six-month absence in excellent form, coming in a close fourth of nine in 1m4f AW Lingfield handicap 17 days ago; holds good claims off an unchanged mark. |

Ended a long losing run over C&D in January; resumed from six months off with a good second of six over 1m5f here three weeks ago; well in the mix eased 1lb. |

In good order here when last seen at the beginning of the year, winning over 1m4f in January before being beaten a head over today's distance the following month; holds claims if ready to roll after a break. |

Two of her three wins have been at this track, the latest over today's distance in March off 2lb higher; nicely handicapped if she gets the breaks. |
16/1 |
|
7th 7 (10) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Gained a second success of 2026 here over C&D in March; second run back from a five-month layoff when a solid fourth of seven over C&D 17 days ago and she's not out of things eased 1lb. |
12/1 |

18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Last two wins have been here, over 1m4f and this trip; did lose her way in the spring and last week's comeback run at Doncaster wasn't overly encouraging. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
All four wins at Lingfield, three on Polytrack and the latest on turf (1m5f) in June; beaten favourite on all three turf starts since but remains in form; may have more to offer back on AW. |
7/4 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Positive start for the Charlie Clover yard, readily landing a small-field affair at Lingfield (1m5f, good to firm) in June; better form when runner-up both starts since, latterly over 1m6f here on good to firm; should give another good account. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Positive start for the Charlie Clover yard, readily landing a small-field affair at Lingfield (1m5f, good to firm) in June; beaten favourite but bettered that winning RPR when second (well clear of rest) at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) five weeks ago; gets the vote. |

9st 10lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with C&D success and has continued in good form, back from two months off with second of 14 over C&D four weeks ago; must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |

9st 9lb |
2-30, his last win in a four-runner Class 5 at Southwell (1m3f; from 8lb higher) in April 2025; gave it a good go from the front, only reeled in late, at Lingfield (1m2f AW; third, 7-1) three weeks ago; Alfie Redman retains the ride. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won three times here (1m/1m2f) before his spell in Ireland and showed the ability remains when third of ten over 1m2f at this course last month; only sixth back here again since, though. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Four modest efforts for current stable this year; dropping down the weights but he has too much to prove for comfort. |

9th 8 (13) |
24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
His fourth win of the year when doing it convincingly at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 22 days ago; a 6lb rise might not be beyond him but, although he has run well on ground softer than good, recent soft and heavy-ground assigments were swerved; presumably he could have done without the recent rain. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Put a poor run behind him when second at Lingfield (1m2f) three weeks ago and will be suited by this move back up in trip but some of the younger ones appeal more all the same. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
7lb lower than when last successful here (1m4f) a year ago and has run some creditable races in the meantime, but he hasn't tackled a trip this short in almost two years; others more solid. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

0-13 on the Flat for two different stables but showed some fair form at up to 1m4f; has realistic each-way claims if he takes well to hurdling for latest new trainer. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Has shown poor form on Flat for current yard and remains a maiden under that code; pulled up in both hurdles attempts; enough to prove back in this sphere. |

25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-14 and, apart from one early bid for glory on Polytrack five starts ago, he is mostly struggling to break out of rear this term; opposed. |

11th 8 (9) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |

19th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not seen over hurdles since respectable fifth on handicap debut at Kempton (2m, good) exactly one year ago and this year's Flat record is rather mixed; however, he won consecutive Brighton races in June and is still unexposed over jumps. |
7/2 |
|
7th 4 (4) |
28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Three course wins include back-to-back ones in June (1m2f); has continued to run well here (1m4f/1m2f) off what's probably a toughish mark now. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 3-3 over C&D with two wins for Tom Queally, who's back up today, in June; didn't look to see out 1m4f in better company here last time, when hanging left as usual; this is more his level. |
